The appearance of David R. Slavitt’s translation of Orlando Furioso (“Mad Orlando”), one of the great literary achievements of the Italian Renaissance, is a publishing event. With this lively new verse translation, Slavitt introduces readers to Ariosto’s now neglected masterpiece—a poem whose impact on Western literature can scarcely be exaggerated. It was a major influence on Spenser’s Faerie Queene. William Shakespeare borrowed one of its plots. Voltaire called it the equal of the Iliad, the Odyssey, and Don Quixote combined. More recently, Italo Calvino drew inspiration from i

This new translation brings to English-speaking readers an intense and brooding work by the greatest poet of the Italian Renaissance, Ludovico Ariosto.

Tragic in tone,they depict the disintegration of the chivalric world of Charlemagne and his knights and give poetic expression to a sense of cultural, political, and religious crisis felt in Ariosto’s Italy and in early sixteenth-century Europe more generally.David Quint’s introduction freshly examine

Il volume, giutno alla seconda edizione, espone, nella prima parte la teoria delle decisioni in condizioni di incertezza nelle sue linee generali, senza fare riferimento a contesti applicativi specifici. Nella seconda parte vengono presentati i concetti principali della teoria dell’inferenza statistica, inclusa una panoramica delle principali ’logiche’ dell’inferenza statistica. L’orientamento dell’autore è esplicitamente di tipo bayesiano, ma vengono analizzate con attenzione anche le principali impostazioni alternative. La terza ed ultima parte è dedica

It is well recognized everywhere that management of sludge derived from wastewater treatment is one of the most critical environmental issues, due to the very fast increase in sludge production as a result of sewerage extension, new installations and upgrading of existing facilities. Within this general picture, sludge is produced under different technical, economic and social contexts, thus requiring different approaches. This report is intended to give an overview of the sludge field in different parts of the world by summarising: current wastewater and sludge treatment provision; current an
